Aiichiro Sasada is a conductor for the Takarazuka Revue Orchestra. When he was in his 4th year of college, his father, who sometimes played piano and did arrangements for the revue, told him they were holding auditions for new conductors. He applied and got the job! He was thinking of becoming an English teacher before that and graduated from Faculty of Education of Kobe University in 1992. In the same year, he joined the Takarazuka Revue as a conductor. After one year of training, he made his debut as a conductor in February 1993 with "La Nova!" performed at the Takarazuka Grand Theater .
